Thank You Card with a Needlecraft Twist

Hello! Today, I am sharing a thank you card that combines the Deluxe Caboodle Value Club exclusive “Pins & Needles Sentiments” die set with the Spellbinders April 2024 Large Die of the Month Club Kit. You can see the friendship card I created with the Large Die of the Month Club Kit – “Pins & Needles Jar” – HERE.

To create the card background, add a 5″ x 7″ panel of textured pin cardstock to a card base.
Cut Large Die of the Month Club Kit and sentiment items from a variety of cardstock colors and patterned paper. Assemble as required.
Add the assembled jar to the background. Fill with the assembled items. Embellish with enamel dots for additional texture.

Spellbinders Daisy Birthday Bliss

Hello! Today, I am sharing a floral birthday card created with the Spellbinders Fresh Picked Daisies die set paired with a BetterPressed sentiment. As I have mentioned before, following Christmas cards, birthday cards are the type I send most frequently.

- Create an A2-sized card base and cover with textured pink cardstock.
- With the Fresh Picked Daisies set, cut the daisy flowers and stems from cardstock. Assemble. Fussy-cut stems. Add assembled florals to card base.
- Press the Let’s Celebrate Sentiments sentiment in black on Snowdrift cardstock. Cut with a banner die (I used a die included in a glimmer sentiment set).
- Step into a world of daisy-infused birthday delight! With intricate die cuts and heartfelt sentiments, our handmade card promises to add a touch of warmth and charm to any celebration. Let’s dive into the creative journey behind this exquisite creation!
- Add the sentiment to the card with foam adhesive.
- Embellish with enamel dots.

Happy Hooray Balloons Birthday Card

Hello! Today, I’m excited to share a colorful balloon birthday card created with the Spellbinders BetterPress system. The Happy Hooray Balloons set includes mylar printed registration templates along with plates and banner dies. The registration template makes it possible to easily create a multi-color letterpress design. In addition to the mylar templates, you can also download the registration template (to be printed at home) HERE.

- With the registration template in place, press the balloons, letters, and strings with Tuscan, Strawberry, Hydrangea, and Black ink on an A-2 panel using the Happy Hooray Balloons set. (I removed one of the three shims.) Add to an A-2 card base.
- Separately, create the “Birthday” sentiment portion in Black ink and cut with the banner die in the Happy Hooray Balloons set. Add to the card with foam adhesive.
- Embellish with stars cut from silver glitter foam with a die in the Merry Mug Creations set.

Spellbinders Stitching Friendship

Hello! Today, I am sharing a friendship card featuring a jar holding a miscellany of needlecraft supplies – scissors, a floss card, floss skein, thimble, buttons, needles – created with the Spellbinders April 2024 Large Die of the Month Club Kit, “Pins & Needles Jar.” Create a card for a different occasion by simply changing the sentiment!

- To create the card background, dry-emboss a 5″ x 7″ panel with the Tiny Dots folder. Add to a card base with debossed side face up.
- Cut Large Die of the Month Club Kit pieces from a variety of cardstock colors and patterned paper. Assemble as required.
- Add the assembled jar to the background. Fill with the assembled items.
